JustLend Skills¶

GitHub: https://github.com/justlend/justlend-skills

JustLend Skills (@justlend/justlend-skills) is an AI Agent skills package for the JustLend DAO protocol on TRON. It provides structured skill instructions and a lightweight read-only MCP server (9 query tools) that enables AI agents (Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Codex, etc.) to query market data, monitor account positions, and analyze DeFi lending information.

It also works as a standalone CLI tool for quick market checks directly from the terminal.

Note

This is a read-only query package. No write operations or transaction signing are supported. For write operations (supply, borrow, repay, withdraw, sTRX staking, energy rental, governance voting), use the full MCP server: @justlend/mcp-server-justlend.

Overview¶

JustLend DAO is the largest lending protocol on TRON, based on the Compound V2 architecture. JustLend Skills wraps the core query functionality into MCP tools and structured skill instructions that AI agents can use.

Key Capabilities¶

Market Data: Real-time APYs (including mining rewards), TVL, utilization rates for all markets
Protocol Dashboard: Total supply, borrow volume, TVL, and user count across the protocol
Account Analysis: Health factor monitoring, liquidation risk assessment, balance queries
Token Balances: Query native TRX and TRC20 token balances (USDT, USDD, USDC, BTC, ETH, SUN, WIN, etc.)
Token Allowances: Check TRC20 approval status for JustLend contracts

Skill Modules¶

The project includes 4 structured skill modules in the /skills directory that provide AI agents with domain-specific instructions and workflows:

Skill	Description	MCP Server Required
justlend-lending-v1	Market queries, account analysis, health factor monitoring	JustLend Skills (built-in)
justlend-trx-staking	Stake TRX for sTRX liquid staking tokens	Full MCP Server
justlend-energy-rental	Rent TRON Energy at discounted rates (50-80% cheaper)	Full MCP Server
justlend-governance-v1	View proposals, deposit JST for voting power, cast votes	Full MCP Server

The lending skill works with the built-in 9 query tools. The other three skills provide instructional guidance and require the full MCP server for write operations.

Supported Markets¶

jToken	Underlying	Description
jTRX	TRX	Native TRON token
jUSDT	USDT	Tether USD
jUSDD	USDD	Decentralized USD
jUSDC	USDC	USD Coin
jBTC	BTC	Bitcoin (TRC20)
jETH	ETH	Ethereum (TRC20)
jSUN	SUN	SUN Token
jWIN	WIN	WINkLink

Tip

The full MCP server supports 24+ markets including jsTRX, jwstUSDT, jWBTC, and more.

Prerequisites¶

Node.js 20.0.0 or higher
TronGrid API key (required)

Installation¶

git clone https://github.com/justlend/justlend-skills.git
cd justlend-skills
bash install.sh

Or manually:

npm install

The install.sh script will create .env and prompt for your TronGrid API key.

Configuration¶

Create a .env file (or use install.sh):

# Required — get from https://www.trongrid.io/
TRONGRID_API_KEY=your_trongrid_api_key

# Network: mainnet (default) or nile (testnet)
NETWORK=mainnet

ln -s ~/.codex/justlend-skills/skills ~/.agents/skills/justlend-skills

Usage¶

MCP Server Mode¶

For AI agent integrations (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Claude Code, etc.):

npm start

The server communicates over stdio and exposes 9 read-only MCP tools.

CLI Tool Mode¶

For quick checks directly from the terminal:

node scripts/justlend_api.mjs markets              # List all markets with APY
node scripts/justlend_api.mjs dashboard            # Protocol dashboard (TVL, users)
node scripts/justlend_api.mjs supported-markets    # List supported markets & addresses
node scripts/justlend_api.mjs balance <addr>       # Check TRX balance
node scripts/justlend_api.mjs balance <addr> USDT  # Check token balance
node scripts/justlend_api.mjs account <addr>       # Account health status
node scripts/justlend_api.mjs account-api <addr>   # Full account data from API
node scripts/justlend_api.mjs jtoken-details <jtoken>  # Detailed jToken info
node scripts/justlend_api.mjs allowance <addr> USDT    # Check TRC20 approval

Skills Reference¶

JustLend Lending (justlend-lending-v1)¶

Core lending skill providing market queries, account analysis, and health factor monitoring workflows.

Workflow Rules:

Always check before advising — use get_all_markets for APYs, get_account_summary for health factor, and get_trx_balance / get_token_balance to verify balances
TRC20 approval awareness — use check_allowance to check approval status before recommending supply or repay operations
Risk assessment — call get_account_summary to evaluate liquidation risk; warn if shortfallUSD > 0

sTRX Staking (justlend-trx-staking)¶

Liquid staking skill for TRX. Stake TRX to receive sTRX tokens that earn staking rewards automatically while remaining usable in DeFi.

Note

This skill requires the full MCP server for tool execution.

How it works: Deposit TRX → receive sTRX → rewards accrue via exchange rate appreciation → unstake with ~14 day unbonding period.

Energy Rental (justlend-energy-rental)¶

Rent TRON Energy from the JustLend marketplace at 50-80% lower cost than burning TRX for transaction fees.

Note

This skill requires the full MCP server for tool execution.

DAO Governance (justlend-governance-v1)¶

Participate in JustLend DAO governance proposals. Deposit JST for voting power (1 JST = 1 Vote), cast votes, and reclaim votes after proposals end.

Note

This skill requires the full MCP server for tool execution.

Voting Workflow:

get_proposal_list — find active proposals
get_vote_info — check available voting power
If no votes: approve_jst_for_voting → deposit_jst_for_votes
cast_vote — vote FOR or AGAINST
After proposal ends: withdraw_votes_from_proposal → withdraw_votes_to_jst

MCP Tools Reference¶

Tools (9 total, all read-only)¶

Tool	Inputs	Description
`get_all_markets`	—	All markets with supply/borrow APY, mining rewards, and TVL
`get_dashboard`	—	Protocol overview: total supply, borrow, TVL, user count
`get_supported_markets`	—	List all supported markets with jToken/underlying addresses
`get_jtoken_details`	`jtokenAddr`	Detailed jToken info: interest rate model, reserves, mining rewards
`get_account_summary`	`address`	Health factor, liquidity, liquidation risk
`get_account_data_from_api`	`address`	Comprehensive account data from API (positions, rewards)
`get_trx_balance`	`address`	Native TRX balance
`get_token_balance`	`address`, `token`	TRC20 token balance (USDT, USDD, etc.)
`check_allowance`	`address`, `asset`	Check TRC20 approval status for JustLend contracts

Security¶

Read-Only: All tools use read-only contract calls (triggerConstantContract) or HTTP API queries. No transaction signing or state modifications.
API Key Only: Only requires a TronGrid API key for blockchain read access. No wallet or private key needed.
Test First: Use Nile testnet (NETWORK=nile) to verify queries before mainnet.

Example Conversations¶

"What are the best supply rates on JustLend?" → AI calls get_all_markets, sorts by supply APY (includes mining rewards), presents ranking

"Show me the JustLend protocol stats" → AI calls get_dashboard, displays total TVL, supply/borrow volume, user count

"Check if my position is safe" → AI calls get_account_summary, analyzes health factor, warns if shortfallUSD > 0

"Check my full position with mining rewards" → AI calls get_account_data_from_api for comprehensive position details including rewards

"What is the TRX balance of address TXxx...?" → AI calls get_trx_balance, returns balance

"How much USDT do I have?" → AI calls get_token_balance with token=USDT, returns balance

"Show me detailed info for the jUSDT market" → AI calls get_jtoken_details, returns interest rate model, reserves, utilization, mining rewards

"What markets have mining rewards?" → AI calls get_all_markets, filters by miningAPY > 0, presents markets with active rewards

Troubleshooting¶

TronGrid API Errors¶

Verify your TRONGRID_API_KEY is valid and not rate-limited. Get a key from trongrid.io.

Invalid Address¶

Ensure the address is a valid TRON base58 address (starts with T, 34 characters).
